These are the scenes at Delhi border of poor migrant workers from UP today. It breaks my heart. What is really going on in India? What is the government doing to help our poor?

People are hungry, thirsty, crying & dying, walking home to meet their families. Government Police are beating them. Not allowing them into states – turning them away.

The government sent special jet planes to China and Italy to bring back hundreds of Indians home. It was also good PR. Are these poor, not Indians? Do they deserve this? How can the world tolerate this? We must unite to stop this.

These pictures, unfortunately, remind me of mass migration during Partition in 1947. So sad & So unfortunate. Govt wants social distancing? These crowds will spread the virus like wildfire. Pls, act NOW

Just because they are poor does not mean they do not deserve better. Before announcing lockout.

Why did govt not think of them & what they will do?
Why is govt allowing them to leave?
Why is business silence?
Where are all the actors & celebrities?

Media has all the praise for the govt effort to contain the virus in India. But what about this? It is not just at the Delhi/ UP border. Will Indian and International media & govt wake up Pls?

A close friend of mine today asked me as to what India should do to handle the coronavirus crisis. After our brief conversation, he thought I should write this and tweet. Here are my tweets in series -
#CoronavirusLockdown

#Coronavirus
PEOPLE
Follow @PMOIndia 's national guidelines on social distancing, hand washing, and lockdown to avoid spreading #coronavirus and crowding existing limited health infrastructure-difficult due to population density, slums, and joint families.
#CoronavirusLockdown
#21daylockdown
PPP
Produce more test kits, test more people, and install more hospital beds through PPP. Respect our health workers and follow the needed discipline to flatten the curve & get through this crisis as quickly as possible.

May 21st is the death anniversary of Rajiv Gandhi the Prime minister of India who dreamed of proud and inclusive India in the 21st century with growth and prosperity for all.
To achieve this dream he focused on technology, liberalization, modernization, young local talent, and indigenous development. In the process, he helps create new jobs, new businesses, new institutions, infrastructures and needed human capacity in various domains.
I had the honor and privilege to work with him has an advisor on technology missions and the chairman of Telecom Commission. He provided Political will
and real meaning to my own life to help connect India.

I do not know who you are @DrGPradhan ? And what your motives are ?? But let me tell you and the public that you are 100% wrong in connecting all the dots.
#STOPspreadingLies
Your story is fabricated with full of your fancy and falls imagination. It does not make sense and is a lie of the first order.
#STOPspreadingLies
The only facts are that Salil is my son, he worked at Facebook for a year, family-owned C-Sam and that’s about it !!!!

1/ Have you ever wondered how a vaccine💉 is made and how long it takes before it reaches your arm 💪? #medtwitter #tweetorial #NKFClinicals #COVID19
2/ How long does it take for a #vaccine to reach the general public from the initial development phase?#medtwitter
3/ Making a vaccine is not an easy task, it is a tedious process from its initial planning phase. Let’s go over what a general process looks like for vaccine development.

GRATITUDE: The first thing I stashed in my #StayHome survival kit was gratitude, a lot of it.

Gratitude is the ultimate fear slayer.

Every morning, I spend a few minutes thinking of all the things I’m grateful for.
HOPE IS THE THING WITH FEATHERS: When @AriadneLabs and @Asaf_Bitton asked me to compile what I’m doing to inspire others while I #StayHome I thought about the little boy across the country I sent a clip of wild parrots that visit me every morning & afternoon.

Hope is the thing🦜
HOME IS WEAR THE HEART IS: With my children coming home early from college, I put together a bourgie survival kit: Asian food, Indian food, camping stove with extra butane, Urth, Jones & Groundwork coffee, infrared thermometer etal. They’re with their dad and we all #StayHome💜🙏🏼

#India #AfghanistanPeaceDeal 1/5 The agreement between the Taliban and the United States is a serious setback to India, and unlikely to lead to sustainable peace in the country. India’s policy towards Afghanistan has had a 3 pronged approach, since the last defeat of d Taliban
#India #AfghanistanPeaceDeal 2/5 First, support and gain from the US security presence, which would marginalise the extremist Taliban, the Haqanni network and other Pakistani strategic assets. Second, adopt a policy of non partisanship and non interference in domestic politics
#India #AfghanPeaceDeal 3/5 Work with the spectrum of mainstream political opinion be it Hamid Karzai, Ashraf Ghani or Abdullah Abdullah to win the goodwill of Afghan people through developmental projects, and especially gain influence the Pashtun- who form the bulk of d Taliban

Toxic, terrifying scenes in Delhi even as Trump and Modi ramp up the bonhomie. Without justice and accountability, and the assertion of the rule of law, the fear of violent recent history repeating itself looms ever larger in Modi’s India.

#DelhiBurning #DelhiViolence
These stories & images - which should make headlines everywhere - call to mind the violent pogroms inflicted on Delhi’s Sikh community in 1984 & the subsequent failures to demand and prioritise justice & accountability. So impunity reigns. #DelhiViolence theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
The detail, the shouts of “Jai Shri Ram”, these descriptions are frightening. As Trump stands by and praises Modi on freedom of religion, where is Modi now? #DelhiViolence #DelhiBurning
